It’s Hot For Teacher in Valley Classrooms — Kids Are Sticky, Hot and Gross!

View descriptionShare
 

The brutal heat still hanging over Southern California: The back of a UPS truck can hit 140 degrees, AC techs are slamming jobs, one caller admits he garden-naked’d his way through the heatwave, and Valley parents say classrooms are too hot for their sticky, gross kids. Down in OC, a high-school football team treasurer allegedly stole $400,000 — used it to pay off a delinquent mortgage — and is now looking at serious prison time. Lou also debates whether kids should stay in school during a heatwave so campuses keep their funding, or get sent home.  

Then it’s fish tales: The largest bluefin tuna ever caught off California this week, a 500-pounder, plus Lou’s take that Japan overfished them nearly to extinction before fishermen and fish “worked it out.”  

Good news for salad eaters: The lettuce recall is officially over, so Taco Bell is back on the menu without the cyclosporiasis scare — a tummy bug Lou notes sounds a lot like being on GLP-1s.  

Forty-four years ago this weekend, Pete Townshend tried to reboot The Who with “It’s Hard,” and it sparked a big fight with Roger Daltrey. The hour wraps with Chargers talk — Lou’s following the team all season, mural and all — and a kitchen ant invasion so bad he’s wondering if white vinegar is the answer.
